  • the patients may increase or decrease the amount of use, as required.
  • the concentration of the active ingredients is decreased over time, as the patient lowers his/her perceived need to smoke.
  • Long-term treatment may be appropriate for certain individuals who require longer periods of treatment. For example, it may require as long as, for example, up to one year after commencement of treatment, or as little as six to ten weeks (or less).
  • the therapy can be patient-controlled, it may be the patient who determines what levels of the active agents are required over the course of treatment, or at various stages of treatment, in order to abate, avoid, or minimize his/her need to smoke. For example, should the patient have a strong urge to use tobacco products, this might indicate to the patient that a higher dosage level is required.
  • Patients may refer to and/or rely on a behavioral support program which may include, for example, printed instructions and/or labels, or other oral instructions, advice or information given by qualified individuals who have been trained in giving advice on methods of treatment using the compositions described herein. Additionally, the patient may consult with a health care provider. However, the patients themselves, once having the educational benefit and guidance of the behavioral support program and/or the health care provider, will ideally be able to assess their own progress and respond appropriately in adjusting their dosage levels.
  • this form of therapy will avoid the symptoms associated with other nicotine therapy, including, without limitation, irritability, restlessness, insomnia, drowsiness, difficulty concentrating (e.g. impaired task performance), anxiety, hunger, cravings, vomiting, diarrhea, cold sweat, blurred vision, difficulty hearing, mental confusion, weakness, and/or fainting.
  • compositions can also be used to treat other addictions, such as alcohol, narcotics (including opiates such as oxycodone, morphine, heroine, and the like), prescription drugs, gambling, and the like.
  • addictions such as alcohol, narcotics (including opiates such as oxycodone, morphine, heroine, and the like), prescription drugs, gambling, and the like.
  • abdominal guinea pig skin can be performed to evaluate the ability of a transdermal composition to deliver an active ingredient in pharmaceutically useful levels to a patient in need of treatment. These can be performed using a diffusion chamber, such as a Franz Vertical Diffusion Cell.
  • the skin can be obtained from female Guinea pigs, 8 to 16 months of age, ideally shaved and free of lesions.
  • a section of full thickness abdominal skin can be surgically excised and mounted between the sections of a vertical diffusion cell with the epidermal layer facing up.
  • a transdermal device can be applied over the epidermal layer while the dermal layer is in contact with a receptor solution of PBS (or other suitable isotonic solution), with or without a suitable quantity of polyoxyethylene 20 oleyl ether (Oleth 20) or other surfactant to prevent foaming, at pH 7.4).
  • the receptor chamber can be maintained at a suitable temperature, for example, around 35 0 C, and the permeation studies conducted under occlusive or non-occlusive conditions.
  • samples can be withdrawn from the receptor solution and the receptor chamber refilled with fresh solution. The samples can be analyzed, for example, using a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method.
  • HPLC high performance liquid chromatography
  • Transdermal flux (mcg/cm 2 /h) can be determined from the steady-state slope of the plot of the cumulative amount of the active ingredient(s) permeating through the skin versus time. After steady-state is established, the linear portion of the plot can be used to calculate the flux from the slope.
  • Bronaugh diffusion cells were used for in vitro penetration studies, which were carried out to determine the flux (i.e. the speed by which the compound penetrates skin) and total cumulated amount penetrated of 14 C-active ingredient.
  • the compound was dissolved in water at two concentrations, 35 and 135 mg/g. Pig-ear full- thickness skin (dermatomed to approx. 900 ⁇ m thick) was used as the membrane.
  • the receiver compartment contained phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.4) and the temperature was maintained at 32°C. The compound solutions were applied onto the stratum corneum. Receiver compartment samples (2, 4, 8 12 and 14 h) were assayed by liquid scintillation counting.
  • the transdermal flux ( ⁇ g/cm 2 /h) can be determined from the steady-state slope of the plot of the cumulative amount of active ingredient permeating through the skin versus time. After steady-state was established, the linear portion of the plot was used to calculate the flux from the slope.
  • the active ingredient has advantageous properties for transdermal use as the steady state flux falls in the same range as for other active ingredients classified as successful transdermals, i.e. 0.2-40 ⁇ g/cm 2 /h (i.e. clonidine, estradiol, fentanyl, nicotine, scopolamine, testosterone). Higher flux can be expected at higher concentrations of active ingredient, e.g. 200 mg/g which is the maximal solubility in water.

Abstract

D'une manière générale, la présente invention concerne l'administration transdermique de 2S)-(4E)-N-méthyl-5-(3-(5-isopropoxypyridin)yl)-4-pentén-2-amine ou de sels pharmaceutiquement acceptables de celle-ci. L'administration transdermique peut être effectuée en utilisant des dispositifs d'administration transdermique de médicament, des formes galéniques semi-solides ou une iontophorèse. Les dispositifs d'administration de médicament et/ou les formes galéniques semi-solides peuvent fournir une libération instantanée ou une libération soutenue ou des combinaisons de celles-ci, et peuvent comporter des amplificateurs de perméation et d'autres composants pour aider le transfert des médicaments à travers le derme, spécialement l'épiderme. Les compositions peuvent être utilisées pour traiter et/ou prévenir toute indication que les ingrédients actifs peuvent traiter et prévenir, mais pour délivrer de la 2S)-(4E)-N-méthyl-5-(3-(5-isopropoxypyridin)yl)-4-pentén-2-amine ou des sels pharmaceutiquement acceptables de celle-ci, de manière efficace, dont les troubles du système nerveux central, les dépendances, la douleur et l'\inflammation.
